An attorney for accused serial rapist Marc Patrick O'Leary said today he is "in the midst of complex plea negotiations" with prosecutors and could have a deal by next month.

Assistant Public Defender Jeffry Dougan told a judge in Jefferson County that negotiations have been complicated in part because of additional sex assault charges filed in Washington.

O'Leary, 33, pleaded not guilty last month to 32 counts, including sexual assault, kidnapping and burglary, for assaults on women in Golden and Westminster and an attempted attack in Lakewood.

Authorities say the attacker stalked his victims, sometimes for months, then broke into their homes while they were sleeping.

The sex assaults went on for hours and the attacker took pictures throughout, police said. When the assaults ended, the man made his victims shower and brush their teeth. He also took potential evidence, such as bedding and clothing, with him when he left, the victims said.

When police arrested O'Leary, they found a camera in his Lakewood home that had pictures from the assaults on it, authorities said.

O'Leary is next scheduled to appear in court on Aug. 18, when he could enter a guilty plea to some of the charges as part of the deal.
